Here, the mood is set just right, and the romance is spilling in from every direction you look. Your honeymoon is the perfect time to enjoy your spouse and have the sex that you have been craving. It is also said by many couples that the sex you have after you are married is very different than the sex you may have had before the wedding.

Here you can see the scenery that is available and try the food that is considered to be specialties.
12. Talk to the Locals

The surprises will not only add romance, but it will provide memories that will mean the world to your spouse.
16. Shut Out the World
While you are honeymooning, you should turn off all cell phones and other electronic devices. This will allow you to focus on your spouse and focus on relaxing. If you must use your electronic devices, limit yourself to about an hour and then turn them off again. Try not to distract yourself from the reason as to why you and your new spouse are visiting your special destination.
17. Sleep In
It is important that you sleep in, and you cuddle with each other. You do not have anywhere important to be and being able to sleep in will allow you to lose track of time. On your honeymoon, you should not keep track of time unless you have a hot dinner planned, or you have an exciting activity to attend. Other than these reasons, you should try to sleep in as much as possible and relax to the fullest while honeymooning.
18. Don't Make a List
Avoid making a list of things that you must accomplish when honeymooning. When you make a list of things that you feel you need to accomplish, you will begin feeling rushed and not allow yourself to relax like you should when honeymooning. Let your day play out without planning and try to be spontaneous when it comes to events and activities.
19. Choose a Bed and Breakfast
Instead of staying at a traditional, upscale hotel, consider staying at a bed and breakfast instead. Staying at a small, non-chain hotel, you and your spouse can have a very unique honeymoon experience. Many of these locations offer amazing honeymoon packages and romantic room service that you both can take advantage of when honeymooning. Here, you can feel pampered in a small and intimate location where the staff is more willing to help you if they know you are on your honeymoon.
20. Go All Out
When on your honeymoon with your spouse, it is important that you and your spouse spend at least one night going all out with each other. This means that you want to make reservations at an expensive, high-end hotel or resort and have a very romantic and expensive dinner together. If you choose to stay at a bed and breakfast for the rest of your honeymoon, you can use the money that you saved to accomplish this. Going all out will allow you to create memories with each other and not feel cheated when returning home from your honeymoon.
21. Have Alone Time to Yourself
Even though you and your spouse are honeymooning together, you each should still have some time spent by yourself. This will allow you to completely let go and just focus on yourself. Here, you can escape to the pool, the beach or the spa. Whichever you prefer, you and your spouse need some alone time to yourself, without each other to unwind from the stressors of the recent months. It is nice to be together when on your honeymoon but it is also good to have time to yourself.
22. Write in a Diary
When you are experiencing your alone time, or at the end of each day, write in a diary or a journal. This will allow you to express your feelings and your experiences as they are fresh in your memory. Keep this diary for the rest of your life. With the diary, you can relive the experience and feel the emotions all over again to assist you in making your honeymoon as memorable as possible.
23. Share Something with Each Other
This is a very simple thing to do with each other but it means a lot to each other especially in the long run. Share something with each other at the end of the day whether it is a dream that you had, an idea or even a small insecurity that you may have. You can even share what made you fall in love with each other for the first time. This is a simple bonding experience that can be very romantic and keep both of you talking on a daily basis. What better time to begin this experience than during your romantic honeymoon.
24. Couples Massage and Spa Treatments
Enjoying a couples massage and spa treatments is a great way to spend time with each other while also relaxing in the tranquil environment that is surrounding you. Here you and your spouse can experience a spa for the first time together as a married couple and you will even feel refreshed and rejuvenated.
25. Plan a Picnic
On your honeymoon, you and your spouse should plan a picnic together on a gorgeous day in your honeymoon paradise. Here, you and your spouse can connect on another level while enjoying what Mother Nature has to offer you. Having a picnic together is a very romantic activity to enjoy together and it is a simple activity that is easy to plan.
26. Form a Routine
If you and your spouse are able to honeymoon for longer than five days, begin forming a routine together as a couple. This routine will definitely become a memorable event whether your routine consists of having a glass of wine at the end of each day, watching the sunset together or taking a romantic walk after dinner. This will allow you to cherish the moments that you had together and these routines can even be carried throughout the rest of your life (even if it is not an every single day event).
27. Order Room Service
Ordering room service at least once during your honeymoon will allow you two to stay in for the night yet still have a romantic dinner even if it is in your comfy clothes. To make things more interesting, try ordering for your spouse and vice versa. Ordering for each other will allow you and your spouse to try new things and it can even lead to interesting and fun conversation over dinner.
28. Lingerie
When honeymooning, you want at least one night where you and your spouse are able to do the dirty and model lingerie for your spouse. This will quickly make your night steamy and memorable for each other. Purchasing new lingerie for a specific night during your honeymoon is a great surprise for your spouse and will leave great memories between both of you on this special night.
29. Be Comfortable and Confident
Throughout your honeymoon, it is important that you are comfortable and confident with each other and in your own skin. If you are not comfortable and confident, it will show through to your spouse and it could lead to tension among both of you. If you are not comfortable in your own skin, there are many different exercise programs that you can do in the months before your honeymoon to get ready. Being still and uncomfortable on your honeymoon will rub off creating an undesirable event between you.

When you are returning from your honeymoon, be sure to plan to arrive home at least a full day before work.
